The Richmond Dispatch says the demo
Gratis can not organize the next U. S. House
of REPRESENTATIVES without the support OF
democratic protectonists, and that there
fore the latter should not be informed be-
forehand that they will not be appointed to
the chairmanships Of important committees
under democratic organization, lest they
unite with the republicans and prevent such
an organization Such statement is of it
self sufficient 10 warrant the action the Dis
patch opposes. Pro,ecionsts can not, in
the nature of things, be democrats, and that
the Dispatch knows they can not be, Is
proved by the fact that it says they will
unite with the republicans. Democrats are
in favor of revenue, and not of protect
i've tariff, aud if they have not enough men
in the House To effect its organization, they
should not abandon their principles in or

House. Then, too, if they donot have con-
troll of the House, they can not be held re-

NEARLY ALL the stove mouiders in the
country are now on strike because their
employers attempted TO use patterns OF a
boycotted foundry in St Louis. A member
of one of the firms whose hands have struck,
In reply to question on the subject, said
''his firm were not at all anxious TO resume
operations, as it would be coed thing for
the trade if the strikers could close all the
foundriesn the country for three months"
good thing for the trade Yes, but three
months idleness would be anything else
than q good thing for the families of the
strikers. And yet the strikers can't see that
their strike while impoveriFhing themselves
and those depending upon them for support,
so far from hurting their employers, is help
ing them, and was doubtless planned before
hand by them, as they had not used the pat.
terms of the boycotted firm before, and had
been informed that an attempt TO use them
would produce strike. But it c9=rns that
some strikers are like the class of people
spoken of in the bible-bray them in NOR
tars and they will be strikers still.

Oloff Krarer. of Ottawa, ILL.,, a native
Esquimau from the eastern coast Of
Greenland, has been lecturing IN Chi
cago. She is thirty years old and IS
only forty inches high.
There are now twenty-seven vessels
engaged in missionary work in different
parts of the world under the auspices Of
sixteen societies. OF these missionary
vessels sixteen are running on the coasts
or rivers Of Africa and six among the
islands Of the Pacific Ocean.
The floating island on Lake Derwent-
water, England, has again made its APP
pearance. 1t came to the surface OF the
water year or two ago near Lodore after
complete submersion for nearly three
years. The cause OF the phenomenon
has never been satisfactorily explained.
A new process has been discovered by
which the most delicate patterns even
of lace-work can be reproduced in iron
by casting the metal on the fabric after
the fabric has been carbonized. Molten
iron can be run on the most delicate
fibre in the carbonized state without in
juring or affecting it.

Sanitary neasures-Brown Bread.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
1t is generally conceded that the
phosphates in wheat are chiefly con-
tanned in the hull or bran, which Is sepa-
rated from the flour by the process of
boiling. Modern machinery of a very
costly kind, making what is called the
"new process -four, accomplishes this
result more perfectly, removing every
particle of the bran.
AS the phosphates enter largely into
the composition of the body, particu-
larly Of the bones, and of the brains and
nervous system, and as their chief supply
in the food we consume is to be found IN
grain, it follows that their removal must
cause a greater or less impairment OF
health. The decay of the teeth, so
prevalent among all classes, is no doubt
due in no small degree to this cause.
Many forms OF nervous disorder have
their origin in the elimination OF so i'm
portant an element in nerve tissue from
our daily food.
Looking at the subject in general
way, it may be said that the farmers
spend thousands Of dollars every year in

Pretended he vas Drowned.

Boston, MASS, February o.
James Flether, Boston agent of the
New York Mutual Life and Acct
dent Insurance Company, has caus-
ed the arrest of three persons on a
charge of swindling that company
The alleged swindle is a curious
one.
Fl. V. Thomas, of No. 210 Spring
field street, took out policy for
$4,000 last spring and had it made
payable to Clara Leonard, Of No
6S Dover street, to whom he said
he was engaged. Thomas and his
friend, Dan Saunders, went down
to Marblehead one day last Septem'
Der for the purpose of seeing a race
between the Thetis and Stranger.
The dory they were in capsized, it
was said, and Saunders returned
to Boston alone, bearing the peck
etbook of his friend, in which was
the $4,000 policy. 1t was paid.
The agent learned certain things
last week that led to detectives
being put on the case, and to-day
Thomas was arrested in Fall River.
He owned up to the deception and
was committed to the Tombs.
His accomplices occupy adjoin-
ing cells.

CIRCASSIAR STORY OF A KISS.

A man was walking along one
road and a woman along another.
The roads finally united into one,
and reaching the point Of junction
at the same time, they walked TO-
gether. The man was carrying a
large iron kettle on his back in one
hand he held the legs of live chick
en-; in the other cane; and he
was leading goat. They neared
a dark ravine. Said the woman /:
Il am afraid to 90 through that
ravine with you; it is a lonely
place, and you might OverpOwer
and kiss me by force Said the
man. How can | possibly over
power and kiss you by force when
| have this kettle on my back, a
cane in one hand, a live chicken in
the other, and am leading this
goatl l might as well be tied
band and foot yes replied the
woman, but if you should stick
your cane in the ground and tie
your goat to it, aud turn the kettle
bottom side up and put the chicken
under it, then you might wickedly
kiss me in spite of my resistance.
Success to thy ingenuity, oh, wo-
man ? said the rejoicing man to
himself. Il should never have
thought Of this or similar expedi-
ents.' And when they came to the
raVine he stuck his cane into the
ground and tied the goat to it, gave
the chicken to the woman, saying !;
'HOld it while l cutsOme grass for
the goat, and then 80 runs the le-
gend-lOwering the Kettle from his
shoulders, he put the fowl uRder it,
and wlckedly kissed the woman, as
